Obesity and its related metabolic diseases have become a major global public health threat, and its rising incidence significantly increases the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, diabetes and other complications. Pancreatic lipase is a key enzyme that converts food-borne lipids into triglycerides and fatty acids, and the effective inhibition of its activity has become an important strategy for the treatment of obesity. This paper discusses the screening methods of pancreatic lipase inhibitors, and summarizes and reviews the basic principles, advantages and disadvantages and application status of traditional screening methods, modern new screening methods and virtual screening methods. In view of the problems faced by the screening methods of pancreatic lipase inhibitors, future research urgently needs to move towards a collaborative innovation path of multi-technology integration, intelligent screening and complex systematization of traditional Chinese medicine, so as to open up new research paradigms.

It is believed that the occurrence and development of squamous cell carcinoma （SCC） is closely associated with inflammatory responses. The theory of fire and heat， advocated by LIU Wansu， provides significant clinical guidance for understanding the pathogenesis and treatment of SCC. Based on this theory， the pathological mechanisms and clinical characteristics of SCC at different stages were analyzed. In the precancerous and early stages， the primary pathogenesis is qi stagnation leading to internal generation of constrained heat； in post-surgery， the condition shifts to qi deficiency with latent yin fire； during the treatment phase， the pathogenesis involves accumulation of pathogenic factors， excess toxins， and severe heat toxicity； in the late stage， the main pathology is yin deficiency with toxic heat， and phlegm-stasis obstruction of the internal organs. Corresponding stage-based treatment strategies are proposed. In the early stage， regulating qi movement to dissipate constrained heat； for post-surgery， tonifying qi and raising yang to dispel latent fire； during treatment stage， clearing heat and detoxifying to eliminate cancerous toxins； and in the late stage， nourishing yin and unblocking the bowels to clear deficiency heat.

OBJECTIVE To explore the potential mechanism of ketamine-induced cognitive impairment in mice based on metabolomics. METHODS Male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into control group and ketamine group （25 mg/kg）， with 12 mice in each group. Each group of mice was intraperitoneally injected with normal saline or corresponding drugs， 4 times a day， for 10 consecutive days. On the last 2 days of drug administration， the cognitive behavior was evaluated by Y maze and novel object recognition test， and the histopathological changes in the prefrontal cortex （PFC） were observed. Ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry technology was used to analyze the changes of metabolites in PFC， screen for differential metabolites， and perform pathway enrichment analysis. RESULTS Compared with the control group， the morphology of PFC neurons in the ketamine group of mice was inconsistent. There were cavities around the nucleus， and the number of deeply stained cells increased. The mean optical density value of the Nissl staining positive area was significantly reduced， and the alternation rate and discrimination index were significantly reduced （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. In the PFC tissue samples of mice of the two groups， there were a total of 114 differential metabolites， including 73 up-regulated and 41 down-regulated metabolites， including glutamine， succinic acid， ketoglutarate， and choline， etc. The differential metabolites mentioned above were mainly enriched in metabolism of alanine， aspartate and glutamate， metabolism of arginine and proline， γ aminobutyric acid synapses， pyrimidine metabolism， cholinergic synapses pathways， etc. CONCLUSIONS Ketamine can induce cognitive impairment in mice. Its neurotoxicity is related to abnormal synaptic transmission and energy metabolism， and neuroimmune regulation disorders.

Gastric cancer （GC） has an insidious onset and is mostly diagnosed in the middle and late stages after clinical detection. It is one of the malignant tumors with high incidence and mortality rates in the world. At present， the treatment plans are optimized mainly in terms of surgery， radiotherapy， and intervention， while the endpoints of clinical trials， such as patients' overall survival， progression-free survival， and disease-free survival， are still unsatisfactory. Therefore， effectively delaying the dynamic inflammation-cancer transformation has become an urgent bottleneck in the prevention and treatment of GC. In 1920s， Professor Otto Warburg discovered the phenomenon that tumor cells can accelerate glycolysis. Since then， the abnormal metabolic network inside tumor cells has gradually entered into researchers' view， and the hot academic research topic of metabolic reprogramming has been proposed. Tumor cells can meet their own energy consumption and adapt to external changes by adjusting their metabolic pathways to achieve rapid proliferation. In recent years， traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） is resolutely pursuing innovation in inheritance and the continuous refinement of research has led to the precision-oriented transition of TCM theories. Therefore， linking TCM with the treatment of tumors and precancerous diseases has certain research connotations. The searching and review of the publications in this field revealed that the number of publications in tumor-related metabolism increased dramatically， while there were only a few studies using TCM as a therapeutic solution. The research group has long been committed to the study of precancerous lesions of gastric cancer （PLGC） in Chinese and Western medicine. This article explained the dynamic process of inflammation-cancer transformation from the perspective of spleen deficiency-Qi stagnation-collateral stasis. The molecules of hypoxia-inducible factor （HIF）-1α， cancer-Myc （c-Myc）， apolipoprotein E （APOE） and pyruvate kinase M2 （PKM2） were selected to reflect the biological connotation of inflammation-cancer transformation. The current achievements of TCM in regulating the metabolic reprogramming to intervene in inflammation-cancer transformation were summarized， with a view to providing more information for TCM to intervene in the inflammation-cancer transformation of gastric mucosa.

Soybean meal (SBM) prepared by soybean crushing is the most popular protein source in the poultry and livestock industries (Cai et al., 2015) due to its economic manufacture, high protein content, and good nutritional value. Despite these benefits, SBM contains various antigen proteins such as glycinin and β-conglycinin, which account for approximately 70% of the total proteins of the SBM and reduce digestibility and damage intestinal function (Peng et al., 2018). Treating SBM with proteases (neutrase, alcalase, and trypsin) or fermentation can eliminate these antigen proteins (Contesini et al., 2018). Because of its safety and rapid growth cycle, Bacillus strains are considered ideal for the fermentation industry (Yao et al., 2021). SBM fermented by Bacillus yields products with high nutritional value and low levels of antinutritional factors (ANFs), stimulating research in this area (Yuan et al., 2017). Kumari et al. (2023) demonstrated that fermentation with Bacillus species effectively degrades antigen proteins and increases crude protein content. The degradation of antigen proteins relies on protease hydrolysis. Low protease production is the major obstacle hindering the widespread use of microbial fermentation techniques.
